Time for the darting community to come together. Our thoughts and prayers are with ADO President Chris Helms and his wife Anita. Chris suffered a fall at work and is currently in critical condition. God be with him and his family.

Chris is one of the classiest people I have had the pleasure of meeting in the dart world. The Smith family sends out prayers to Chris and family on a speedy recovery. News like this is hard to take, hang in there Chris. SEWA has proven how powerful our prayers work when banded together, and this time is no exception. You are in good hands. _________________ Spring 2007 A State Champions Incredible's

My brother - Christopher UPDATE Monday 10/1 -
Would you like to send Chris a card? Mail to:
327 Devonshire San Antonio, TX 78209
His condition remains unchanged from yesterday. So keep praying, share your stories, come by to visit if you like.
Update from our little sis, Chandalee:
" He has been moved to room 1072 (still in ICU). No significant changes one way or the other from the doctors' perspective but friends are reporting that he has been moving his fingers some and moving his lips too. One tiny step closer to consciousness and having him closer to recovery.
Thank you all again for the outpouring of love, support and prayers we have seen from everyone. I can't tell you enough how much it has meant to the family and I know it is helping Chris pull through this. "
ditto
In addition, Anita says that they plan to do the trach and add a stomach feeding tube, in order to get the tubes out of his mouth, sometime, today. Biggest thing is still waiting to get that swelling down.

Latest update, on Chris, from Anita:
Anita says that it has been a long weekend. She has been trying to work, in order to make up time for earlier in the week when she was at the hospital. They have been trying to take Chris off the pain management meds, but he became very uncomfortable. He is also having some problems with breathing with the trach tube. she says that it has been one of the worst days that he has had to endure. He is still in coma, but continues with the movements in protest to being messed with: moving legs, scrunching face, turning head away, some eye-openeing. As always, we continue to gives thanks to God that Chris continues to heal. We love you, Chris and we would really like it if you could just go ahead and wake up. So many things that you will have to catch up on when you awaken. We are trying to keep up with everything, so that you can check it out. Love you, little bro, and hugs.
